They tried to do that whole "buy a club level lounge" idea for members and it never really took off, and have been trying to salvage revenue-type items in that space ever since. And since Geyser Point is right there, you can't really turn it into a lounge / bar either.

I know.... and although I didn’t buy there for that reason, I was really hoping it was successful since we love staying CL. They just wanted too much money for half, if not less than half, of what you’d get with real CL. It’s a shame. I don’t feel like they truly put any effort into it. I was against a community hall, but I think it’s better than nothing at this point.

Thanks @mrsap for collating all the CCV information!

I'm planning future vacations for diversion and entertainment during lockdown. The Cabins look fantastic. Unfortunately we only added 75pts for the AP discount, so can't even book 3 nights with banking and borrowing. Those who have had 1-2 night cabin stays - would you recommend it? Thanks.

Happy you found us!! As far as the cabins go, I think if it’s something that you really want to do, I say go for it! Even if it’s a one and done type thing, at least you get to experience the cabins! But be careful: you might want to add a lot more points after that trip!! Thank you for your kind words, and writing out your string for me! I will get you up on page 1 right now!

Once you move to a 1 bedroom you never look back! It’s usually just the two of us, but we stayed in a 1 bedroom and DW never wants to go back to studios. I don’t mind, but I’m a point miser, so she says.

We have the same problem...lol

If you're staying just to hang out in the cabin, then a 1-2 night stay is definitely worth it IMHO, especially for 2 nights. It can make a nice relaxing weekend stay.

Does anyone know if the metal Skyliner refillable mugs are available at Wilderness Lodge? Thanks

Yes, they are refillable at all the resorts. WL is only selling the metal Star Wars cup since it's not on the Skyliner route.

How often do the boats (1) to MK and (2) to Contemporary run? If one has a target entry time to MK how soon before should one leave the room?

Currently the boats to Contemporary are not running. I feel they come about every 15-20 mins. I’ve never had to wait long for another boat. The boats start running about an hour before park opening and stop about an hour and a half after close.

Can you take the boat to MK and then jump on the monorail to the contemporary?

 

[Mumof4mice]

Can you take the boat to MK and then jump on the monorail to the contemporary?

Yes, you can take the Resort Monorail from MK to the Contemporary. However, unless a monorail train is at the station and already loading, it's faster to use the walkway.

Just canceled our late Oct trip today.

I called MS because I wanted to see if they would be willing to place all of my points back into my 2021 UY that I borrowed from due to Covid. The gentleman on the phone was willing to help me out so I have all of my points back for UY 2021 (150 pts). So glad he was able to do that!

We really wanted to go but with no fireworks, parades, character meet and greets, and about 80% of the restaurants I had booked are still closed, we felt it would be better to wait till WDW is back as close to normal as possible since it was the first trip for my 4 and 6 year old to WDW. I also feel like I wouldn't of gotten my money's worth on my 9 day tickets with so many modifications currently in place. We are possibly looking at late May/early June or Thanksgiving next year as a our new "Welcome Home" trip depending on the virus.

So if anyone was trying to book a 2 bedroom dedicated at CCV between 10/24 to 11/3, you may now have a chance to get a room unless all those dates are waitlisted!

Any room recommendations for a Deluxe with tub studio from the group? Have only stayed in the 2 bedrooms to date.

Most are on the first floor, so it might be hard to get a upper floor if your looking for that.

 

[MrsBooch]

Does anyone have recommendations for 1 bedroom location requests?

Does anyone have recommendations for 1 bedroom location requests?

It depends on personal preference. Some like being close to the elevators for quick pool/transportation/lobby access. We like to use our balcony and take in the view. So we were in a 1 bedroom on the 5th floor, and we plan on requesting the same each time. We were facing BRV and could see the lake to our left since we were farther down toward the end of the hall (where the GVs are). The 6th and 7th floors have a bit above half height walls instead of railings so sitting on your balcony you wont get much of a view, so for us we will make sure to state we don't want those floors.

How are you? Hope you are well!

You might get stuck with a first floor room. If so, I would recommend requesting a courtyard view. Good luck!

Ah I see - I want to be kind of close to the lobby but also have a nice view of the "fun" pool and side view of the lake

Ya, you would have to request something specific then. You would want a room next to the pair of elevators. A perfect room for you would be something like 5117, it would be facing the main pool and the lake while being next to the secondary elevators and down the hall from the main ones.
